My figures are FISCAL years of responsibility.... the first Bush budget began October 1 2001, for fiscal year 2002...this was his first budget that he had to turn over to congress giving them his priorities.FYIYou mean like you liberals swallowed Obama's bullshit about Bush adding $4 trillion to the debt being "unpatriotic", just before he added $10 trillion? Or "If you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it", just before he relied on the stupidity of the American people (liberals) to get it passed? Or maybe you liked how he traded 5 terrorists for 1 deserter and still think he's gonna defeat ISIS? That kind of gullibility?Many voters will want him to prove how he is going to do it, and so far, his tax policy has been shot down by the experts. Trump can promise you pie in the sky, but only the gullible will swallow it without proof.
Bush added $5.9 trillion to the National Debt in his 8 fiscal budget years of responsibility
Well now, FactCheck seems to have different numbers than yours. Sorry the article is a bit dated:
That’s a huge increase to be sure — 44.5 percent. And the Congressional Budget Office now projects that it will grow to more than $16 trillion by the end of the current fiscal year on Sept. 30. At that point, the debt will have increased by more dollars in Obama’s first four years than it did in George W. Bush’s entire eight-year tenure, when it rose by $4.9 trillion. The rise under Obama would then be the biggest dollar increase for any president in U.S. history.
Dueling Debt Deceptions
Fiscal 2002 thru fiscal year 2009, was Bush's 8 years of responsibility as President. (Fiscal year 2001 was Clinton's and began October 1, 2000)
